print called "Thc Five Orders OF
Periwigs Measured Architectonlcally."
But there were more than five
orders. Wehave the parsons wig, the
legal wig, the aldermanic wig, the
Episcopal wig, the composite wig, the
bag wig, the wig in folio, the full-bot-
toned wig. the pigtail wig, the Ramilie,
the scratch wig, &c, &c. Fenitut de
Eincles says that wig in folio cost
LOCO French crowns. The full wig OF
an English gentleman varied in price
from thirty to forty guineas. It is there
fore not surprising that the swell mob
of the wig period tried to pos
sess themselves OF such costly
articles. Their mode OF opera
tons IS thus described by Samuel
TogeIs: a small boy was carried,
covered over in a butchers tray, by a
tall man, and the wig wa. twitchcd oil

lScTlDucTs MughLlut.I
When the conditions of atmospheric
instability have given birth to a tor
nado, the fact is announced to the OBJ
server by a sudden gathering of dark,
swift-whirling clouds, from which de-
pend a writing, serpent-like body
formed of condensed vapor. This
writhing column extends rapidly down
ward until it touches the earth. When
it attains the surface it becomes
audible from the violent rending
actions which it creates upon that
surface. AS soon as the whirl is created
it begins to move away-generally to-
ward the northeast for the evident
reason that the upper cold layer OF air
against which it originates has, in the
northern hemisphere, movement in
that direction. In its path over the
surface the circling movement OF the
writhing air and the sucking action of
the partial vacuum in TIE central por-
ton of the shaft combine to bring
about an extreme devastation. On
the outside of the whirl of air,
which rushes in circling path
toward TIE vortex, overturns all
movable objects, and in the centre
these objects, if they are not too heavy,
are sucked up as by great air-pump.
Thus theroofs of houses, bodies of men
and animals, may be lifted to great ele-
vations until they are tossed by the tu-
movements beyond the limits
OF the ascending currents and fall back
upon the earth. Where the centre OF
whirlwind passes over building the
sudden decrease in the pressure OF the
outer air often causes the atmosphere
which is contained within the walls
to press against the sides of the
structure, So that these sides are quickly
driven outward as il by charge OF
gunpowder. It's not unlikely that the
OF pressure brought about
by the passage of the interior of the
~hirl over a building may be about as
much as is indicated by the fall OF four
inches in the barometer. This is equi-
TALENT to change in the pressure
mounting TO about 800 pounds to the

UNHAPPY OFFICIALS.
CLERKS iu the Treasury por;incut
want 4 HcGdiuStnsent OF
Salaries.

Tie Washington correspondent OF
the Baltimore SVa writes: There IS
much discomfort among Treasury De-
Vm,mcnt officials resulting from what
they term the "farcical adjustment OF
salaries" Those who feel ag9rieycd
say that IN effort is to be made t.
secure q rtadiustmcnt OF salaries from
Secretary tairchild, who, they claim,
can cquiiaDly distribute the same
amount now paid IN salsrie, for officials
so that there viii be no just cause for
complaint. Several examples OF the
faulty adjustment Of salaries are cited
blythe dissatls fed ones. Judge Maynard
was promoted FROM Second Comptroller
10 Assistant Secretary. In the subor-
diualc position he received -, 0J0 per
0nnum, While his new position pays
only $l,J0D. The First Comptroller
and the Comptroller Of the Treasury
also receive 1905 more per annum thlu
the assistant secretaries. The Conmis-
sioner Of Internal Revenue, who IS also
a subordinate OF the assistant sacccA-
res, and mag be called for by them,
receives 81, $50 more per annum than
they. The official who weighs paper
in the Stcretary's Office receives -. 800,
willie The deputy auditors, who are re-
qpired to possess more or lesslesalabll-
ity, receive only $3.50. 1t is claimed
that chiefs of divisions in bureaus are
paid much higher salaries than the
bureau officers, though the latter are
appointed by the President and con-
filmed by the Senate. 1t is cited as
most telling example of the ridiculous
apportionn ent of the salaries, that
though the duties of the accounting
officers are most eXacting and difficult,
yet the deputy cOmptrollers get but
%, 7C0, even $50 less than the appoint
ment clerk. The aggrleyed persons
feel that there should be a readjustment
all along the line. They state that it will
not be necessary to appropriate an
additional penny to have such readjust-
ment it can he done readily by increa-
sing here and decreasing there, by
assimilating the pay to the nature OF
the duties. This is but one side of the
story. Those whose salarie, would be
materially reduced by a resdjustment
are not aware that the Government is
paying them any TOO much for their
services. They will not object if the
salaries of their brother officials are in
creased 10y legislative enactment, but
would strenuously protest against such
increase being made at their expense.

Flood has wife and two children, a
son and daughter, both unmarried.
He is believed to be worth about 49,

inherit even larger sum than this, for
the millionaire is man of indefatiga-
bic energy, and his schemes for his
further enrichment are apt to be sue
cessful.
Mr.. Flood is still in the prime Of
life, having been born in the city Of
New York about 1926. lie received
plain commons school education. How
his time WAS occupied between school
days and his majority is not known,
but when about twenty-three years of
age, in ls49, he sailed for California,
making the long Journey around the
HON. With three thousand dollars he
returned to New York, but resided in
that city only year Back again at
the Pacific coast, like all the adventu-
rers of that period, Mr.. Flood had
troublesome tines, Disappointment
and failures, and plenty of hard
work. In 1854 we find him
emerging from obscurity and becoming
known as the leading partner in the

wigs.

The periwig, which has been long
used in France, was introduced into
England soon after the Restoration.
The ladies wore their hair curled and
frizzed with the incest art, and they
frequently set it off with artificial curls
called heart-breakers.' After the
Restoration it was natural for the
comtiers TO assume an appearance as
distinct as possible from the enc
mics of the Monarchy, and in op-
position to the short hair OF tue
Roundheads they heightened the
periwig to the waist. 1t is easy to see
that in many cases it was necessary to
eonfne the hair of these wigs. That it
was first confined by persons in mill
hry capacity appears by the names
which wigs tied back had. A full wig
tied back in one curl is Major ; in two
curls, o Brigadier and plated into curl
below the ribbon was Ramilie. And

Blue Laws.

1t is worse than nonsensical for the
Legislature to pass Oil Act that is not
approved by the great body of tho
people. 1t is positively harmful be-
cause it tends to destroy all respect
for law. The samo unfortunate result
follows every effort OH the part of
executive authority to enforce laws
that have become obsolete by season
of being out Of harmony with tho
spirit Of the age. The people won't
obey, and are therefore compelled to
resort to oil manner of evasions.
The cold blue laws" of New York
will presently furnish good illustra-
ton. The inhabitants Of tho cities of
New York and Brooklyn have stub
bornly resisted tho recent efforts to
enforce thcm; they have applied to the
Legislature without success to repeal
1t, and now tho Star comes along with
the following bold and significant sug-
gestion:
Tho question is, Shall we in Now
1ofk ana brooklyn observe an enact
ment which is contemptuously ignored
In every other part of the State? Shall
we continue to revive against our
selves a dead letter which is kept upon
the statute book only because it is irk-
some and oppressive to us? Or shall
we do as tho Pharisccs in the country
do, take the course that is most agree
able to ourselves and commend to our
neighbors what to them is most rcpul-
sive.
There is no doubt about the final
outcome of it. The people of New
York City don't believe in the law,
and thoy are not going to respect it
long. Tho Legislature was given an
opportunity to save itself from con.
tempt and 1t would not. Now we
shall SEQ what wo shall see.

"Railroad official" in his letter in
quiring into Mr.. McMaster's position
OH tho railroad question, asks:
Are you not aware that in making
the rate from New York to WinnsborO
the question Of water competition is
an element and that the rate is made
Oh the lowest combination, and that
under the long and short haul clause
no such element will enter into il or
be permitted, and that the rate to
Winnsbor0 and other interior towns
will be much higher than now2
/ think if he was aware of these
facts he would not have written US lie
did. The enforcement Of tho fourth
section would kill interior towns.
The question is unintelligible. While
he was about it''Railroad official" ought
to have explained what no meant by
saying that "wator competition is an
element, and that the rate is made on
tho lowest combination" He ought
to have told, too, how it was that
'under the long and short haul clause
no such element will enter into it or
be permitted" If he had done these
things he would have given some rea-
son why it is that he "thinks" that II
Mr.. McMaster had becn aware o.
these facts that he would not have
written as he did.
"Railroad offlciaP' further says
"That the enforcement of tho fourth
section would kill interior towns"
For this timely exhibition of gen.
orous solicitude, we arc Of course cx
tremely thankful. In this day 0
perfect peace, when tho lion and laml
may lie down together, wo may almos
cease "to fear the Greeks even whcl
bearing favors."
